This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with administrator-level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled."}], "lastModified": "2024-10-22T08:15:04.227", "sourceIdentifier": "security@wordfence.com"}
